Harry’s Pub

One’s best bet here may be basic «Pub Grub» — Burgers and the like.
Our starter choices were hit and miss. The Shrimp Cocktail was a disappointment. Limp and tasteless — the shrimp should’ve stayed in the kitchen. The Ahi Tuna w/​wasabi sauce was flavorful and provided a nice kick. A solid choice.
We both ordered the Salmon Main Course — we both were disappointed. With assorted vegetables flavor still lacked. Dish was also a bit dry which wasn’t surprising since our mains came out five minutes after our starters arrived. I asked the server to take them back — unacceptable. The shared Pecan Pie tasted dated.
With the standard dark wall paneling the restaurant itself is handsome and comfortable as one can enjoy televised sporting events with various screens available.

I sat at the bar since I was by myself. The bartender was decent, but he barely spoke English. He was partially attentive.
I ordered the bone-​in pork chops with mashed potatoes and vegetables (carrots and asparagus). All of it was good, but slightly under seasoned. I ordered the bread pudding for dessert, which is made with Bailey’s Irish Cream. It was really good!
Overall, it was a good meal. It wasn’t the best I’ve ever had, but it was definitely not the worst food I’ve had at a hotel before.

The service was good. Ordered the grilled salmon. Delicious. Had grill marks yet moist. The Caesar salad was good as well. I will return there again. Price good for quality of food and service

Came in after a late flight one night and had the server named Roman and she was hands down amazing. We then came in a couples days later (I’m Actually sitting at the pub now) and Roman is truly a delight. She puts a smile on my
face after 11 hours at a conference. Thanks Roman for being so sweet and amazing!

Don’t bother. Go to the Stones Throw instead. Two days in a row I sat for 20 minutes without even being greeted by the waitress. Finally got up and left. Way better service at the Stones Throw in the Marriott

It’s a hotel restaurant, with all that goes into it, but it’s fine. I do not understand the 1 star reviews. Really, if you don’t feel like leaving the hotel, and don’t mind the prices, it’s a safe bet.
Ate here with my family. The best reviews were for the salads; the greens looked good and were plentiful. The salmon got a good review as did the crab cake sandwich. The pork chops were fine, if meh. French fries are crispy. The beer selection is limited but adequate for what it is.
This place is not fancy. This place is not gourmet. But the food didn’t suck, the service was fine, and it’s convenient. I’d give it four stars but the price for what you get is enough for me to bump it down one star.

I went here for lunch and ordered the grilled chicken sandwich. It was delicious! I thought I was getting a chicken breast. But when the sandwich came it was sliced chicken. I thought it was very delicious and would definitely order it again. The fries were very good also but I was so full from the chicken sandwich that I was unable to eat the fries. The only complaint that I have is the service. Granted I did come at lunch time but the service was very slow and it took my waiter 15 minutes to bring us the check and we never got any refills on our drinks. Even though the service was slow I will be back because of that delicious chicken sandwich.

Good food, decent service for as packed as it was (yay, hotel restaurants at conferences!). The crab cake was lovely (though a bit overpriced) with not much filler at all (just enough to hold it together).
Biggest downfall? Price. $ 17 for a crab cake sandwich and fries PLUS $ 7.25 for a BOTTLE of Angry Orchard? It’s highway robbery!

Ate here out of desperation after a late night at the office and finally returning to the Marriott hotel. Even though they are located in the lobby, they don’t do room service so I went downstairs to order to go. I tried a couple of things:
— chicken caesar salad: large portion but the lettuce didn’t seem fresh and the chicken was very dry
— coconut shrimp: served on skewers, good flavor but greasy
— banana chocolate bread pudding: gross. Looked gross and tasted gross
Won’t be back.

Yuck! I ordered the steak and fries. The fries were good but the outside of my steak was burnt. I’m all for a nicely seared outside but this was too much especially for the price I paid ($ 30) It’s been an hour and I still have the taste of charcoal in my mouth.

Ate there with my boyfriend while at Animé USA. The restaurant was not full by any means, even for it being around 5 pm. We weren’t greeted when we walked in and stood in the open doorway and had to actually walk into the middle of the dining are before anyone acknowledged we were there and sat us.
The waiter was polite, but wish we had had the woman waitress on duty because she was amazingly attentive to her guests. Ours preferred to stand in the workstation behind our table and fold utensils in napkins and ignore his guests.
Food took forever to get out. We both ordered appetizers and they took over 20 minutes to get to the table. I ordered the butter pecan shrimp and he ordered the crab cake sliders. The shrimp were not fresh. Though the were pre-​cooked, they were frozen, as was discovered when the center of one of the shrimps were still cold. But since they were pre-​cooked before they had been deep fried, I felt it safe to eat. His was more a crab salad on a nice hamburger bun, and he said it was very good but was not what he was expecting. The crab cake was not firm by any means.
It took forever to get our check, about 20 minutes after we were done eating and showed signs we were done so that the waiter would notice from his utensil bundling. In the meantime, one of the servers was running back and forth complaining to the other servers that he wasn’t getting any tables and a table of four went to the bar to get drinks, then sat at a table. His job, apparently, was to lower the morale of the other employees and make sure there was tension in the dinning area.
After about an hour and a half for two appetizers, we left, leaving the waiter a $.30 tip, which was far more than he really deserved, but we didn’t want to wait around to see how long it would take to get change.
Close the Pub, or get a new staff plan and organization. For such a nice hotel, this place in no way reflects the hotel.

Probably the best Italian sausage sandwich I’ve had in years. My wife loved the Harry’s burger, lots of flavor. The wait staff was excellent. The type experience you would expect from a high class hotel restaurant but rarely get. I can’t recommend it highly enough. Having said that, the fries were overly salted — just get them w/​o salt and add your own. They’ll be great.

Good food served by an awesome server. Kids menu is decent and the Maryland Crab soup was fantastic. Ask for Roman she is amazing!

Really enjoyed the clam chowder and Harry’s salad — nick the bartender suggested I get the ½,-½ of each (which was also half price!) house chard was great and I got tourist advice to boot!

Came to the Marriott with my wife and kids for her work conference and ate here first. It was very quiet in the hotel. The waitress was delightful and perfectly attentive. The food was good, I had a burger and kids had Mac n cheese kids meals. Wife’s salad was yummy. Typically overpriced for a hotel which kept us from returning.

I was in this Marriot for a work conference. The first time I had their food, I was taking it to-​go so that I could work in my hotel room. The second time, a colleague and I needed to grab some food late in the evening and we didn’t feel like leaving the hotel.
Food:
The chicken quesadilla was really middle america. Some sort of orange sauce was inside the quesadilla which made it horrible. They give you three dipping sauces (sour cream, salsa, and guac) which I was excited about but the sauce overpowered everything. I really have no idea how you screw up a quesadilla.
The pork sliders were really below average. The buns were stale and the BBQ sauce was overly sweet.
Service:
Great. The waiter never let my water glass empty and stayed away for the most part.
Ambience:
Nice. Very dark but spaced out well.

My colleagues and I came here for lunch because we were attending a conference held at the Marriot Wardman Park and we didn’t have a lot of time to explore the Woodley Park area for other restaurants. The first thing you notice is that they don’t offer many things in their menu. Hence, it was easy to choose what meal we wanted. As soon as we ordered, we realized we only had 40 minutes left before our next session starts, so we asked the waiter if our food can make it in time. He said we should be fine.
Indeed, our food came out after about 15 minutes. I ordered the seafood fettuccine. The food was alright. The shrimp seems like it came from a frozen package and not fresh shrimp. The pasta was not really al dente. While the food is hot, the taste was just okay. I just needed something to fill my stomach.
Service was fine, I guess. We were ignored most of the time because we were sitting in their back corner. I applaud them for getting our order out fast though. This restaurant is also overpriced but I think that’s what you should expect from a hotel restaurant.

Nice place albeit a bit overpriced, but hey its a hotel bar. Not much in the immediate area, so it fits the bill for a few drinks with friends.

Yuck!
I ordered a lobster soup instead I got a bowl of what tasted like a vegetable soup.
It was the most expensive veggie soup ever /​the cheapest lobster soup ever.
Go to 7 – 11 and get a hot dog.

This was one of the worst hotel restaurant I’ve ever been to.
— Service: Superficial. just wanted me to order most expensive item on the menu.
— Food: This was course of awful food, in my opinion.
1. Fried ravioli: Dried ravioli seemed to be fried and got more dried up. I had to ask the server to take it back to kitchen and get a bowl of chilli instead.
2. Vegetarian chilli: bean stew with a little spice. Didn’t come with sour cream or cheese. Dive bar chilli would be better than this.
3. Vegetarian panini: For about $ 15, this was a food that made me feel annoyed to just think that I would be full from eating this flavorless bread and veggie.
Overall, I thought to review this restaurant and my experience because I don’t want tourists to dine here by chance and think that Harry’s pub is how DC restaurants are, which is not true.
PS: Highly recommend to go outside of the hotel and try restaurants nearby or Dupont. Don’t waste money, even if you have expense account. Not worth it.
